KORTRIGHT —  Sheriff Craig S. DuMond announced the arrest of 18-year-old Kayden Wilcox of East Meredith. 

On June 18th, 2025, Delaware County Sheriff’s Office Deputies received a complaint in which it was alleged that a male subject was in possession of child pornography.  

On June 19th, Investigators responded and conducted multiple forensic interviews at the Delaware County Child Advocacy Center. Later that day, Investigators responded to a residence in the Town of Kortright to seize electronic evidence pertaining to the case.

Subsequent investigation of the complaint revealed that 18-year-old Kayden Wilcox of Kortright was in possession of obscene sexual material of a child on an electronic device.

On September 15th, 2025, members of the Delaware County Sheriff’s Office Criminal Investigation Division arrested Wilcox on one count of Possessing an Obscene Sexual Performance by a Child, a Class E Felony of the NYS Penal Law. 

Wilcox was later released on an appearance ticket and directed to return to the Town of Kortright Court at a later date to answer the charge.
